I am trying to get the child care tax credit and the software is not recognizing my spouses earned income from the business section for 1099-K for self-employeed

[re2boys]

Does the business show a profit?

Review your W-2 and their K-1 and make sure that each is listed for the correct person since each must have positive earned income for the form 2441.

1099K is a document showing amount of sales processed through a third party entity, typically a credit card company.

The business does not show a profit, and I believe that to be the issue

Question answered by poster. They are not eligible for child care credit because spouse did not have net income from business.
